The database includes measurements of the trace gases carbonyl sulfide (OCS) and carbon disulfide (CS2) in seawater (in picomol per liter) and the marine boundary layer (parts per trillion, ppt). It consists of individual datasets compiled from published original data, digitalization from publications (pdf documents) and unpublished data. Only shipborne measurements or measurements from time series stations with a dominant marine signal are included. The database contains mainly surface ocean measurements, but few available profiles down to >1000 m are included as well. Temporal resolution ranges from 12 minutes to hourly or monthly intervals. The database includes the following metadata (if available): latitude, longitude, depth, time of sampling, meteorological and physical parameters, main reference, method, contributor(s). The database is intended to facilitate model evaluation and the identification of global patterns. Data in excel and txt-files are identical
